A Prayer for Intimacy with the Lamb, the Bridegroom of the Soul

Oh Lamb of God, Who take away the sins of the world, come and act on my soul most intimately. I surrender myself, as I ask for the grace to let go, to just be as I exist in You and You act most intimately on my soul. You are the Initiator. I am the soul waiting Your favors as You act in me. I love You. I adore You. I worship You. Come and possess my soul with Your Divine Grace, as I experience You most intimately.

Messenger: Include Our Lady of the Holy Spirit Center in 6:20 prayers.

Messenger: WE URGENTLY NEED FUNDS TO PUT OUT THE NEXT NEWSLETTER, PRAY FOR THIS AND FOR THE NEWSLETTER AND ALL INVOLVED. 

WE ALSO NEED FUNDS FOR PRAYER MANUALS FOR THE 75,000 PRIESTS.

Messenger: Our Lord has asked us to pray for a special priest and three other special priests and His designated priests.

                  Please pray for the priestly newsletter and for the intentions on the prayer list at the end of the message.

Messenger: Please pray for an urgent intention, spread the blood of Jesus on them, consecrate their hearts, cast the devil far from them, and ask for a special outpouring of the Holy Spirit.

                  A second urgent intention is to pray for the mailing of the newsletter and all involved.  Please pray hourly if possible.

Messenger: God flooded the earth at the
                             time of Noah.

              God allowed so many rainbows
                    at Falmouth, Kentucky where
                    Mary appeared.

              God said this in Genesis 9: 13-16

Genesis 9: 13-16

I now set my bow in the clouds and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and the earth. When I gather the clouds over the earth and the bow appears in the clouds, I shall recall the covenant between myself and you and every living creature, in a word all living things, and never again will the waters become a flood to destroy all living things. When the bow is in the clouds I shall see it and call to mind the eternal covenant between God and every living creature on earth, that is, all living things.’

Messenger: God said in Genesis about the
                    rainbow

Genesis 9: 13

I now set my bow in the clouds and it will be the sign of the covenant between me and the earth.

Genesis 9: 16

When the bow is in the clouds I shall see it and call to mind the eternal covenant between God and every living creature on earth, that is, all living things.’

Messenger: After God allowed so many rainbows 
                    at Falmouth.

Then the city of Falmouth flooded
       after Mary appeared 22 times.

Mary appeared in rainbow color
       December 17, 1996 by day.

January 5, 2001 Mary appeared in

        night.

Mary is still appearing in rainbow,
        color. 

Messenger: Here are the pictures as I took them during
                     the 6:20 prayer service March 5, 2001.

                At the beginning of the prayer service
                                Mary turned white although
                     still like a rainbow.

                During the whole rosary Jesus'
                     face appeared on the image
                     window as you see here.

March 17, 2001 - Second Message

Given March 16, 2001

Messenger:         Jesus sent us to Father 
                        Carter's grave yesterday 
                        for 6:20 prayers.

                        Here is his tomb stone. 

                        He entered the Jesuits on 
                             my birthday.

                        When he entered the Jesuits
                             August 8, 1951 I was
                             five years old.  

                       My Birthday was one of the 3 dates on his
                             tomb stone.

                                    when he was BORN
                                    when he entered the Jesuits
                                    when he DIED

                        His birthday was
                            January 15, 1929.

                        In 1929 was Lucia's vision.
                            Lucia's vision was actually June 13, 1929.

 Messenger:   June 13 is the day Father Mike
                            was ordained.

                        March 22 is Lucia's birthday, 
                            the main visionary of Fatima.

                        The only day Fr. Mike and
                            Fr. Carter met was
                            March 22, 1997.

                        3 years after the corner fell off
                            the old seminary.

                        Fr. Mike was in the corner at
                            the old seminary on March 22, 1994.
                            Moments before the corner fell
                            off his beeper went off, but
                            he could not identify who it
                            was. 

                        He was in the last class that
                            graduated from the old seminary (1981).

                    Our mission to pray for the renewal
                            of the priests, the Church
                            and the world.

Messenger:   Father Carter's birthday was on the
                            15th day of the 1st month
                            of the year. 

                        Listen to Exodus
                            In Exodus 12 The Passover God says:

Exodus 12: 1-14

E: THE PASSOVER

Yahweh said to Moses and Aaron in Egypt, ‘This month must be the first of all the months for you, the first month of your year. Speak to the whole community of Israel and say, "On the tenth day of this month each man must take an animal from the flock for his family: one animal for each household. If the household is too small for the animal, he must join with his neighbour nearest to his house, depending on the number of persons. When you choose the animal, you will take into account what each can eat. It must be an animal without blemish, a male one year old; you may choose it either from the sheep or from the goats. You must keep it till the fourteenth day of the month when the whole assembly of the community of Israel will slaughter it at twilight. Some of the blood must then be taken and put on both door–posts and the lintel of the houses where it is eaten. That night, the flesh must be eaten, roasted over the fire; it must be eaten with unleavened bread and bitter herbs. Do not eat any of it raw or boiled in water, but roasted over the fire, with the head, feet and entrails. You must not leave any of it over till the morning: whatever is left till morning you must burn. This is how you must eat it: with a belt round your waist, your sandals on your feet and your staff in your hand. You must eat it hurriedly: it is a Passover in Yahweh’s honour. That night, I shall go through Egypt and strike down all the first–born in Egypt, man and beast alike, and shall execute justice on all the gods of Egypt, I, Yahweh! The blood will be a sign for you on the houses where you are. When I see the blood I shall pass over you, and you will escape the destructive plague when I strike Egypt. This day must be commemorated by you, and you must keep it as a feast in Yahweh’s honour. You must keep it as a feast–day for all generations; this is a decree for all time.

Messenger:     In Exodus 12: 29:

Exodus 12: 29

And at midnight Yahweh struck down all the first–born in Egypt from the first–born of Pharaoh, heir to his throne, to the first–born of the prisoner in the dungeon, and the first–born of all the livestock.

---

Messenger:     Listen to Exodus 12: 6:

Exodus 12: 6

You must keep it till the fourteenth day of the month when the whole assembly of the community of Israel will slaughter it at twilight

---

Messenger:     Listen to Exodus 12: 29:

Exodus 12: 29

And at midnight Yahweh struck down all the first–born in Egypt from the first–born of Pharaoh, heir to his throne, to the first–born of the prisoner in the dungeon, and the first–born of all the livestock.

Messenger: Father Carter was born on January 15.

                     Look at the 22's

September 22, 1997  I received a strong message and
                                           a few days later the Basilica in
                                           Assisi was destroyed with the
                                           Frescos of St. Francis and St. Clare. 

                                           Jesus speaks: "I speak through these messages and you 
                                           continue in your stiff-necked ways. Would the destruction 
                                           of your temples bring you to your knees? Or should I 
                                           destroy My own houses? Or would they get the message 
                                           anyway, if I burned them down?"
                                                                             (excerpt from September 22, 1997 message)

September 22, 2000  Father Carter found out 
                                              he had cancer.

December 22, 2000  Father Carter's funeral.

Mary appeared 22 times at Falmouth.

January 22, 1998  Jesus gave his message to the world.

June 22, 1996  Father Carter got the message to go to
                                      Indiana where we discovered 
                                      China.

March 22, 1994  Corner fell off the old seminary.

March 22, 1997  Father Carter and Father Mike
                                         met on Father Mike's Radio Rosary on the Air show. 
                                         (their only meeting)

Messenger:     Here are a few of the many letters we 
                                    got today.

                         Every day we get lots of letters in the
                                     mail.

Dear Fr. Carter,

    Compliments of the season and peace of the moment.
I am a seminarian in the above seminary. I was
delighted and in fact have gained more spiritually from
reading a copy of the Shepherds of Christ Newsletter.

    I request to be a beneficiary of this 'Spiritual food'.
Would you be kind to send me a copy of the book
on Shepherds of Christ Newsletter: Selected writings
in spirituality for all people.

    Thanks in advance while I look forward to including
my name in your mailing list. Wish you God's
choicest blessing.

Dear Associates:

I am truly blessed by my association with you and your ministry. 
You have contributed a lot of spiritual upliftment to my parish 
through the literature and pictures you sent me last
year for Lent and I wish to thank you for that.

As we embark on another Lenten journey I am requesting from 
you again any form of assistance in terms of books, booklets, 
pamphlets, pictures, prayer cards or audio and video cassettes.

Be assured of our continued prayer for you and the ministry. 
We may not be able to contribute any finance of substance to 
you because of our low economic income, but spiritual we will 
assist through prayer.

May the Lord make his face shine upon you and all the members.

Peace and love in Jesus' name.

Sincerely yours in Christ.
Rev. Fr. Elveau

Rev. and Dear Fr. Carter,

    Compliments of the Easter season to you.
Last day I visited one of my friends, who is
studying Bangalore DePaul Institute. He
showed me a newsletter 'Shepherds of Christ.'
When he came for the vacation he brought it.

    I found it very profitable and thought of
making a request for subsequent copies as the
one I read was given to me by one of my friends.
I shall therefore, be very thankful if you do me
the favour of sending me copies of the newsletter
in the future.

    And also my friend gave one cassette to
me - that is very good message. All my family
likes that speech. Some of my friends also
took that from me. So please send some
more cassettes to me, which gives good message.

    May God bless your apostolate most
abundantly. Expecting your reply.

    In union of prayers in the Lord's vineyard, I remain,

                                        Sincerely in Christ
                                        Joseph

A rosary can be used to pray for healing. It is powerful to unite our prayers to the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass and pray through the powerful intercession of Our Lady of Clearwater.

In times of trouble, for special prayer, we can use our rosary and pray as follows.

A Rosary for Healing or for Someone with Cancer.

On one Hail Mary bead or as many as you desire, say: 

May God heal                     through the intercession of Our Lady of Clearwater in union with the Mass and all the Masses being celebrated around the world.

Pray the Hail Mary or Hail Mary's then pray this after the Hail Mary.

May the cancer be uprooted and thrown into the sea.

We believe with all our hearts.

After the Glory Be — pray the following petition.

May                     be healed through the intercession of Our Lady of Clearwater if it be the holy will of God.

Note: You can look at Mary on the image rosary while you pray this rosary.

Note: The above section can be printed out from a PDF file, and you can pray the rosary looking at the pictures.
